  • My main interest is to use recordings of seismic energy to image the internal structure of the Earth and to study properties of earthquakes. Just as X-ray (CAT scan) and MRI provide non-invasive ways of viewing the inside of human body, different geophysical data can be deciphered to obtain pictures of the Earth`s interior without sending instruments deep down. Seismological observations are particularly suitable for such study, and allow us to see the internal structure from different angles. These data also contain clues about source of the energy, i.e., how the Earth slipped to cause earthquakes.
